Dear Neighbours,

We have surged to 284 signatures! We are just 16 away from handing over a 300-strong grievance to the City Manager this Friday.

The Irony of the Week: While Chelsea and Arlington substations are tripping and treated water gushes into the streets of Melsetter, the Metro is focused on the Vive La Vivre Festival this Saturday. 🥂🚢

They find the resources to support "Masterclasses" on festivals and luxury events, but they tell Ward 6 there is "no budget" for our aging pylons and pipes. We say: Infrastructure before Entertainment. 🛠️❌

Can you help us find the final 16? Please share the link to your street WhatsApp group right now. Let's hit 300 before the lights come back on!
